I'm bored with Pulis' PTB hoof ball already JH.
Oh for the not so long ago Uncle Roy days and when we finished 8th with exciting attacking football. Sadly, it will be a long time before we see those exciting days back at The Hawthorns. Solution ? Take a good book.

I'm not so sure about this, Baggieman. I seem to remember lots of very defensive, boring football under Roy with endless articles on here and other forums ranting about his insistance on the 'old fashioned' 4-4-2. We seem to have forgotton that Roys home record was absolutely shocking having lost 10 times the season he was here. Our points came from away games where we shut up shop and broke well.
Time seems to have clouded our view on Stevie Clarke. A good 1st half of the season where, we could say, we played our best football for years followed by one of the worst, only winning a further twice and 'got away with' 8th due to clubs just below us having mares i.e. Swansea. Clarke went on to record 5 (?) wins in a calender year.

We followed this up with Msr Mel........ ... and the rest is history!
